Unable to receive mail
Hi all
I am getting the following error when I try to receive mail in OE (IE6): There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was rejected. Account: 'Hugh', Server: 'mail.mysite.com', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR Bad login', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92 The username and password are definitely correct as are the POP3 and SMTP server addresses. This is really infuriating as I have checked and double-checked all login info both on my machine and the server. What other explanation can there be for this failure to receive? I can't think of one!! Nanouk |

Your current Identity may be damaged, especially if its the default Main
Identity. Try one or more of your accounts in a new Named Identity (FileIdentitiesAdd new identity). Assuming all is well, import messages from the old Identity before deleting it (FileIdentitiesManage Identities). Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local folders created for this purpose. Disable Background Compacting and frequently perform a manual compact of all OE folders while "working offline". More at http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/files/maintain.htm. Your anti-virus application's email scanning feature can also cause such corruption. Disable it. It provides no additional protection. -- HTH - Please Reply to This Thread ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-Windows (IE/OE), AH-VSOP AumHa Forums http://forum.aumha.org What You Should Know About Spyware http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/twc/...y/spyware.mspx Nanouk wrote: Hi all I am getting the following error when I try to receive mail in OE (IE6): There was a problem logging onto your mail server.
